Lets say you melted palmitic acid, paraffin, and sucrose. While they be good conductors, poor conductors, or will they not be able to conduct electricity.

Neither sucrose nor paraffin in molten form will conduct electricity. Palmitic acid has a pKa of 4.78 which is almost the same as acetic acid so I would expect it to conduct but be a poor conductor typical of a weak acid.
